This is why when you come to a different country you should try to assimilate. I am all four people keeping their culture alive. I wish as an American I had more of a culture. But for one you should learn to speak the language you can speak your native tongue also but you should also speak the language to the country you’re going to, and the driving issue I’m pretty sure is due to the way they drive in India there’s like no road laws and its insane driving. Maybe there needs to be more laws regarding some of these things you should have to take driving lessons in the country you’re moving to. I don’t exactly know but there needs to be more rules. I’m sorry to say but it is not OK to go to another country and basically give them the middle finger to the way they live!!

As an American, I’m deeply sorry for what we’ve become by electing this orange idiot into the White House. I stand with Canada, Mexico, Ukraine, and the rest of our global allies in opposition to our “president’s” bent to authoritarianism and isolationism. I truly hope that we can course correct before we (globallly) plunge into something much darker. \n\nKudos to prime minister Trudeau and other leaders speaking truth and calling the situation we’re now in for what it is.

I’m an American… I’m so sorry, Canada. I love your country as well as ours. I don’t want this at all.

As an American, I’m sorry. He’s a reckless bully and doesn’t care about anyone but himself and his agenda.

As an American, I'm waiting for the 2026 midterm elections. Looking forward to impeaching Trump after that. So sorry for the idiots that elected him though to be clear it was less than half of us.

As an American I stand with Canada and Mexico there’s some of us that don’t agree with what this government is doing. And as an American we shouldn’t stand with Russia that’s wrong. I’m sorry to all the countries out there that are taken effect by our circus of a government.

Trump doesn't care about us!! He is a hateful, ignorant, weak, filthy, coward. I apologize to all of our alias. Please know that not all Americans are like TRUMP. With all my heart, I'm sorry.

As a Mexican, I truly respect and admire Mr. Justin Trudeau, a true leader while inmature Trump is leading the US to it's doom... lets see how this goes, Trump now has enemies all over the world, I'm so sorry for the fellow American citizens that will suffer for voting again for this hillbilly Clown and hillbilly JD Vance!

As a Canadian, sorry fellow Americans; I’m not buying a single American made thing. No Milwaukee tools, or bits. No California produce. No American made furniture. No American fast-food brands. I’ll take 4times the time to shop to make sure not even a Qtip made in the US gets bought with my money. Deteriorated is an understatement.

Dear Canada. We the people the good citizens of these divided states do not condone what trump is putting your country and the rest of the world through! More than 80% of us hate trump and his evil lawless deeds! We are no longer free here! We are under the thumbs of an evil dictator and his panzy the riches man in the world! They are destroying this country bit by bit and quickly! They and the republicans in congress have sided with them! I’m am saddened that you great friends and all citizens are no facing his dictatorship follies! trump is not American! He never has been! Musk worked his magic with skylink and stole the votes from the democrats! Erased millions of our votes east as pie! I respect mr trudou and we hear his plea! His sorrow and I hope he and all who read this in Canada realize that the hood American here never wanted this but we can’t stop him with the way he and our judicial system is erasing our constitution! It’s eroding daily as if it never existed!! We are truly sorry for the pain he’s putting you through! Know that the 80 percent of Americans still stand with Canada Mexico Ukraine the EU and the rest of the world he’s punishing ?

American here that doesn't like this. I'M SORRY Canada. \n? \n?❤\nI would rather be Canadian. Any room up north for a cannabis honor student ? and artist???

On behalf of the American people, we didn’t want any of this. I’m sorry

As an American, I'm so sorry, Canada. I can't say I don't know anyone who wanted this. But I am not one of them, and never have been. This is insane.

I’m documented Ukrainian immigrant and now American. Canadians, please know that we don’t want this and as Ukrainian please know that your support is so special and appreciated! Always. Thank you and sorry. Do what you have to do.

I’m an American citizen & how couldn’t the majority of my countries citizens not see this coming! It was just common sense!\nYou didn’t need to be a political genius to see this coming!\nI did not vote for that person & on behalf I’m so sorry for all of us!!\nMay God help us all!✝️????

Just so our Canadian brother and sisters know 231 million American people DID NOT WANT THIS! those 77 million Maga maggots and Donald Trump DO NOT represent us, AT ALL!! he and his goons will single-handedly destroy this Country. I'm so incredibly sorry this is happening!

I am an American and I am with you Mr. Trudeau. \nYou have all the right to fight back. I'm sorry and embarrassed that this is happening.

Absolutely disgusting. How as Americans do we begin to apologize for this? I'm so sorry to our allies. I'm so enraged that I'm crying. Canada is our friend and this scumbag and his sycophants have destroyed that friendship. I'm so sorry everyone. This is devastating ?

I’m sorry Canada for my deranged government. Please don’t think they reflect all Americans. Most of us are terrified right now and hate this situation we’re in. And most of us love Canada as our neighbor and friend

I’m an American and I am with the Canadians. I’m sorry that my government and MAGA are doing this to you all.

It DOESN'T make sense!! I'm so sorry Canada......I know WE Americans will be punished by this horrible/hateful human that some chose as a president.

I'm sorry about this viscous & needless act! I'm an American & I understand completely why Canadian's are upset. I also understand why you're going to retaliate, if you didn't, then I'd question your leadership. Canada has to do what's right for its people and Americans will understand why Canada has to do whatever it has to do for its People and Country. Trump's plan to make Canada the 51st State is by putting economic pressure on Canada until it can't stand anymore. This is his plan and now you can prepare Canadians for the fight ahead. God Bless Canada!!!

Trudeau for American president!!!\nI’m so sorry Canadian for our Russian puppet tormenting us all.

40 million people live in Canada. I’m sure USA would do alright without Canada. This clown speaks on Americans like he is one, truly disrespectful. This guy is a big talker like Obama but soft. People like him are what causes stagnation and unemployment. Trump sells strength security fairness. Sorry if it hurts your little feelings.

I’m an American and I just want to apologize to Canada. You have always been a good neighbor and a friend. You don’t deserve this. The Donald Trump version of America has shown that its treaties and its word are meaningless by betraying its own agreements with you. I am truly sorry. And I urge you to do what you need to do to protect yourself. The truth is that the America we all once knew, the one I grew up in, is gone.

As a born and raised Canadian who is now American I am deeply sorry that the U.S. is doing this. I’m glad Canada is fighting back.

As an American, I'm sad about what my government is doing to a long time friend. Canadians, I'm sorry about this.

I'm so sorry, Canada. I wish I wasn't an American.

As an American: I’m sorry.

I’m an American and I stand with Canada, and all our former allies! I’m so sorry and embarrassed to be American right now

I say this to all Americans, t***p goes on and on about President McKinley as he used Tariffs on behalf of the US . Does he not realize McKinley was assassinated? McKinley was a nut job as well. I'm so sorry Canada for this childish rhetoric coming from our idiots in thief.

I finally have respect and admiration for Trudeau. I wanted him to resign, but not if he can beat Trumpler at this trade war. I'm so very sorry to you Americans...at least to all the ones who did NOT vote for that Clownident.

I’m a NEVER Trumper. A ?in a red state. Trump does not represent me nor my morals and convictions. I was physically ill watching him and his pup Vance absolutely bully President Zelenskyy. I’m sorry that this is what half of the country voted for. I’m disgusted that I had family and friends who refused to see him for who he is. I’m so sorry to all those who didn’t vote for him yet we will also be aligned with him. I greatly appreciate you Prime Minister Trudeau. Thank you to those in other countries that realize not all Americans wanted this. Not all Americans bowed a knee to him. Thank you for your kindness.

As an American, I don't want this either ?? I'm sorry

Terriffs are nothing new though. I think it's insane that America's have to consistently payout our tax dollars to other countries. The President is wanting these other countries to step up to the plate and do their part. It's okay for them to let cartels and fentanal come into our countries and kill Americans by the masses. I'm sorry I'm American born and will put America 1st. Stand 10 toes down and not be a dang traitor. Americans are so quick to change sides when shit get a little rough. But haven't spoke up and said shit for years. Now we have someone shaking things up and we tuck tail and support a whole other country. Pathetic

I apologize but until “Donald Duck” is removed my $10,000 will not go across the boarder p/year, I’m sorry to the innocent Americans but this is how it is. I would go to war for America but not till Donald Duck is gone…my heart goes out to all Americans suffering under this Authoritarian!!

Canada, the American people don't want this and a lot of Trump supporters didn't want this either. I'm sorry that y'all too have to suffer and deal with a man that doesn't lead your country. Believe me I would swap with y'all tomorrow. \n\nIt's amazing how Canada came up with how many billions for border patrol but we can't get Congress to pass a bill. President Biden tried to get a bill through Congress within his first 100 days and they wouldn't pass it then either. We have scanners sitting at the Mexican Border that will detect Fentanyl but Congress would approve using them either. Everyone needs to find out how their Representative voted on that bill and make sure they are not in office next time. \n\nI don't know how this man got elected but I feel like Musk and Starlink helped him win. I just heard that Starlink is what was used to send the results in the swing states. Musk told someone an hour before polls closed that Trump was the winner, with his evil laugh and let's not forget Trump telling his supporters that they didn't need to vote cause he will win without them. That's fishy. \n\n\nY'all what do we do if he won't leave office? What do we do then? I know he just got in the White House but it's never too early to have a plan to get him out. They worked on Project 2025 for 4 years and now it's all falling into place. OMG! What are we going to do?

Trudeau, my brother, My words cannot begin to express to you or your people just how genuinely sorry I am for my country's utterly repulsive and inexcusable behavior throughout the last month and a half and for the downright cruel, hostile treatment you've suffered at the hands of the most incompetent, greedy, poorly educated, narcissistic, racist, sexist, xenophobic buffoon to ever preside over the United States. Not only is Donald Trump an overly privileged, pathetic, whiney crybaby who literally folds his arms, stomps his feet, and launches an all out temper tantrum whenever he doesn't get his way or when someone else has the TV remote, he is a dangerously delusional, high stakes risk taker who wouldn't think twice about using his own mother or child as a human body shield if he thought his life were in danger. There is absolutely no value, principle, moral or ethic he wouldn't betray without hesitation if he suspects there is anything at all to be gained - you know, the type of guy who would poison the entire neighborhood in order to hoard all the complimentary tampons and lip gloss samples from his neighbors' mail boxes just to ensure that he got first dibs on everything before anyone else. Incidentally, he is also the same type of guy who pockets all the flavored mini coffee creamers from the gas station and all the paper bed sheets and Qtips from the doctor's office. I wouldn't put it past him to steal the waitresses' tips off tabletops on his way out the door upon leaving McDonald's. In fact, I would bet everything that he steals the donation jars for Jerry's Kids at the local supermarket. I mean, its already a given that he is likely the guy who filed a lawsuit a few summers back against a sweet, innocent littls FOUR year old boy for having a lemonade stand on property not zoned for commercial use. If it wasn't Trump then I'm sure it's only because he was too busy ordering the National Guard to power hose and pepper spray the 30 or so elderly nuns who had been distributing bottled water to folks demonstrating in support of Black Lives Matter on the hottest day of the year. Satisfied in his victorious battle against the nuns - 9 of whom had been hospitalized for critical injuries including the 92 year old Mother Superior who suffered massive brain bleed, swelling and concussion due to the excessive force of the power hose and an 87 year old nun who lost permanent sight in one eye due to the pepper spray - Trump had the nerve to pose for a publicity shot in front of the church while holding a Bible - UPSIDE DOWN - and scrunching and contorting his face into that hideous trademark scowl he does ever so naturally. Yep. This is the man my fellow Americans chose to represent our nation as President - a man who beats up 90 year old nuns and imposes 25% tax hikes to our ONLY FRIEND in the entire world simply for refusing to accept his invitation for statehood. I mean, come on, Trudeau, is that really asking too much of you? Was it really worth bruising Donny's fragile little ego and sending him into a fit of rage? (Seriously, though, I suspect he really does feel as though you are in the wrong for refusing to humor his delusions and thus embarrassing him in front of all his Russian dictator and Ku Klux Klan buddies.)\nOnce again, I do humbly apologize and I promise I will support whatever actions you choose to take and I will help you in any way you deem is best. \nMuch love and peace always, \nMs. S. Delois Jackson

As an American.... I'm sorry.

As an American citizen, I'm so sorry Canada.

As an American that did not nor never would vote for trump....there is no making sense out of his idiocy. He has made us less safe in the world, he has humiliated America. I cannot believe this is happening in my country, I'm so sad and sorry for the chaos he and the Republicans are causing.

As an American I can say with a full heart that I stand with Canada, Mexico and Ukraine. Donald Trump is a pig and the majority of the American people are complete and utter assholes for electing this deranged demagogue piece of shit. To the world at large, I'm deeply sorry for the stupidity of my people.

As an American, I'm sorry Canada. The US President is a tool. Please do whatever you have to do to protect yourselves.

Sad American here... You go, Trudeau! I'm with you and Canada! Also love that you called Donald out directly! Trudeau, you are a true leader! Hot stuff! America is totally fucked. I'm so sorry, Canada.

What a nightmare, I'm so sorry your people and American innocent people are going to suffer the consequences of Trumps actions.\nLove to you, Canada.\nFrom Australia ❤

Go Canada! Be tough on America. America deserves NO sympathy. I'm sorry. Most Americans are sorry about this situation. I hate the orange troll and I'm just as angry at the people that voted for him. But, I don't think even they thought he would do this and probably trusted the Congress to stop these things. But, the Republican side of Congress is made up of cowards. This will hurt America. I just hope in the end, this will make America better because people will realize the consequences of their stupidity. And stop electing spineless and evil representatives.

To the rest of the world: As an American citizen, I just want to say that I'm sorry our population was dumb enough put an incompetent, fascist, narcissistic conman fuckhead into the white house where he could screw everything and everyone (us included) up. Not all of us voted for this or want this. Not all of us are dumb enough to fall for his bullshit.

Agree with Canada & the Wall Street journal, tariffs in Canada are dumb. This is not a good way to MAGA. It’s only to fatten up Trump and his rich friends. Canada is our friends, it’s beyond reason. But then, I knew this is what Trump would do. ??ing it isn’t for long. I’m so sorry. ? American here.

I'm an American. I'm so sorry for the shameful actions of Trump. So many Americans have nothing but love for our friends in Canada. I voted against this. I'm heartbroken. ?

Wow I'm sorry Canada! This is not what we want either!! Very embarrassing to be an American right now. ?
